I forced myself to get back into journaling a year ago. I enjoy the tacticle feel of books and bounded journals, but my handwriting is atrocious; ink and paper fades over time; it’s easy to physically lose a personal journal if you travel often; not to mention, physical journals are at risk of perminant degradation and distruction from the elements. Nonetheless, writing in a journal does offer that personal and creative touch of timeless value that cannot be replciated through a digital word processor. My tech-savy significant other has much prefers a physical journal over a digital one over the years for this very reason.

Having all of that said, I took the plunge with Day One for desktop. Like any app, it takes a little practice to adjust to this structured of journaling. It looks and feels great. The layout is easy on the eyes. It is a pleasure to type on, whether it be a few words or multiple paragraphs. And having it secured with a passcode with iCloud support is a fantastic plus. One of my few gripes: There should be an option to add more than one photo to an entry. Maybe a limit of like 5 or 10, but just one photo?? I take many pictures when I travel, and it would be nice to add a small batch of photos per entry.

Overall, this app is great to use for journaling and many other uses. It carries has a good deal of potential. It’s a bit like Evernote, but less bloated and much more straight forward with plenty of utility to boot.

A simple journal

I was looking for a simple digital journal, and I found it. I tried a few apps, but nothing compared to this one. It’s simple, easy to use, and doesn’t have too many menu options to clutter the application. You can add pictures, show what you’re listening to, and add a location to your entry. The interface is elegant and simple, and there are inspiration quotes at the top to encourage your writing. I use this journal across multiple apple devices and what’s great is the syncing capability. If I’m about without my computer and I want to jot down some notes, I can open the app on my phone or iPad and simply type some thoughts down.

The bad thing about this app is that if you want to use this app with your mobile device(s) and your laptop, you’re going to have to pay for it twice. I thought that since I had purchased it once on my mobile devices that I’d be able to just download it for free from the app store like many other applications, but this is not the case. I can understand why the computer version would cost more, but I feel like there should be some sort of discount on the full price of the computer version if you already paid for the mobile version.

Amazing

I’m not a real journal keeper but I’m one of those people who like writing and wish I had an enthusiam for keeping track of my life. So I got this app mainly because I was plannign a trip to Bali. I started using the app when I went on the trip I must say, there is no easier way to keep track of something than using this app. It’s so easy. If you upload a picture you have the option of posting it in your journal when the picture was taken, so you don’t have to worry about uploading it right that second, or not getting the times right if you want to enjoy the scenery after you take a picture. It will tell you the location and the weather of where you were in the picture and everything. I didn’t think that I was going to keep up with “just another journal,” but I must say, this app is spectacular. It’s so easy to recap my vacation for my friends and it syncs with your phone and your computer. All in all, if you have a drive to keep track of the important things in your life, get this app. It’s so simple to use and you’re going to love that you can look back in life to the moments where you thought, “yes, let’s take a picture of this,” or, “this is a moment to remember."
